I am an absolute team player. If nine years in the Army, three-and-a-half in the Middle-East, taught me anything, it's that the team succeeds where one fails. Learn to recognize strengths, then fill in weaknesses, and you (as in all of you) will succeed.Contribute, pull your weight, and recognize that others sometimes pull their own weight in different ways. Use this to organize your team, then slowly, methodically, assist the team members with their weakness. That said, there's always a time to head out alone. This, specifically, is why you bridge the weaknesses to strengthen the individual units on the team.I am highly adaptive. Despite my Signal (Telecommunications) background, I have experience in security, administration, clerical, logistical, supervisory, and basic mechanical principles. I'm also still versed in the basics taught to us in Basic Combat Training as Soldiers. My experience in peer mentorship and mediation has been extremely valuable in my time in the Army. I look forward to bringing it into the civilian world.
